From Maisto's Premiere Edition line (MA386491), this 1:18 scale 2002 AMG Mercedes-Benz CLK-DTM "Vodafone" GT racing car is quite appealing with its colorful graphics, low stance and interesting engine compartment. The "DTM" stands for the Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters (DTM= German Touring Car Masters) and is a racing car series based in Germany, but also with rounds elsewhere in Europe. DTM cars adhere to a front engine, rear-wheel-drive design. The cars are powered by fuel-injected 500 hp V8 engines and rev-limited to 9,000 rpm.

A number of years ago I found the model in a funky discount department store without a display box for a pittance, a fiver. Maisto put some real effort into the model and it shows. Nicely done wheels and tires, closed side windows, and plenty of metal in its construction. An old one and yet, a good one.

Thanks for looking...

Support your local demo derby.

Quite a bit of detail esp @ the $5 level. Thanks for the pictures. :thumbup:

It certainly is nicely detailed, and a good looking model.

Congrats on the great deal too!
